USAG Italy – Vicenza DPW Housing Division

20221219

PART 1

GENERAL INFORMATION

1. General: This is a non-personal service(s) contract under which the personnel rendering the service(s) are not subject, either by the contract’s terms or by the manner of its administration, to the supervision and control usually prevailing in relationships between the Government and its employees. This service contract’s purpose is to provide housing support services to the housing office customers located in the area of USAG Italy - Vicenza.

1.1 Description of Services/Introduction: The contractor shall provide all personnel, supplies, transportation, supervision, and other items and non-personal services necessary to perform taxi-interpreter services as defined in this Performance Work Statement (PWS) except for those items specified as Government Furnished Property and services. The contractor shall perform to the standards in this contract.

1.2 Background: The United States Army Garrison Italy (USAG-I) Caserma Ederle DPW Housing Office has offered housing support services of taxi-interpreters to incoming and outgoing personnel for approximately 33 years.

Prior to this service, housing employees and/or Government sponsors were responsible for providing transportation and assisting customers with interpretation. Due to an increase in the customer base and a decrease of staff in the housing office, combined with cultural challenges associated with the unique nature of the Italian real estate and utility markets, this service was established. Since its beginning, the support services of the taxi-interpreters have been used by more than 28,000 Service Members and civilian personnel.

1.3 Scope: The contractor shall provide taxi and interpretation services to housing office customers. These services include: 1) transportation to and from available rental quarters; 2) transportation to and from local utility companies, facilitation with opening and closing utilities procedures; 3) interpretation and translation for housing related matters; 4) private rental unit assignment inspections in the presence of landlord and tenant/s, annotating the general conditions of the property; 5) assist with application procedures for Codice Fiscale for all in-processing personnel; 6) assist with application procedures for Vicenza downtown Zona Traffico Limitato (ZTL) area driving permits; 7) liaison support between Private Rental occupants and property owners, realtors or designated point of contacts (POC).

1.4 Objectives: The objective of this requirement is to provide housing support services of taxi/interpreting and Private Rental liaison support services, per Part

5. Specific Tasks, for U.S personnel in the area USAG Italy - Vicenza.

1.5 General Information:

1.5.1 Quality Control Plan (QCP): The Contractor shall develop and maintain a QCP to ensure services are performed in accordance with (IAW) this PWS. The Contractor shall develop and implement procedures to identify, prevent, and ensure non-recurrence of defective services. The Contractor's QCP is the means by which it assures that the work provided complies with the requirements of the contract.

The Contractor’s Proposed QCP shall be submitted to the Contracting Officer (KO) through the Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) for review within ten (10) calendar days (A001).

The Government will review and either notify the Contractor in writing of acceptance of the plan or return their comments to the Contractor within 10 calendar days.

Any proposed changes to the accepted QCP are required to be resubmitted for acceptance by the KO (through the COR) no later than 30 days prior to the anticipated change and before implementation by the Contractor. The timeline noted above will apply for review and acceptance for proposed changes. At a minimum, the QCP shall include and answer the following to be acceptable:

a. A chart showing the organizational structure and lines of authority, the names, qualifications, duties, responsibilities, and classification of each member of the Contractor's Quality Control Team.

b. How the Contractor will monitor work to ensure that performance complies with all deliverables (etc. timelines, deadlines, and goals).

c. How the Contractor will monitor work to ensure that performance complies with all specifications and requirements of the contract, including clauses.

d. How the Contractor will ensure all keys issued will remain controlled items (Paragraph 1.8 Key Control).

1.6.2 Quality Assurance: The Government will evaluate the Contractor’s performance under this contract in accordance with the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). This plan is primarily focused on what the Government must do to ensure that the Contractor has performed in accordance with the performance standards. It defines how the performance standards will be applied, the frequency of surveillance, and the acceptable quality levels (performance thresholds).

1.6.3 Recognized Holidays: The USAG Italy Housing office observes all recognized Italian and U.S. holidays and Local National Rest Days, as published by USAG-I at Caserma Ederle. At the discretion of the Housing office Chief, the Housing Office will, on occasions, remain open for business on recognized holidays or rest days, and the contractor may be requested to provide services on these holidays.

1.6.4.3.1 Contractor Work Plan: Reserved.

1.6.5 Training Holidays: USAREUR has historically granted military personnel training holidays as compensation for time that they spent in field training. These are typically combined with regular holiday leave schedules (for example, Christmas half days or day-on-day-off schedules). Training holidays may affect access to military operated facilities. If scheduled work or access to facilities is required, coordination with occupants will be necessary or the work in affected facilities shall be rescheduled after the training holiday. However, announced training holidays or exodus of military personnel may provide the Contractor with an opportunity for unrestricted access to facilities and areas. The Contractor shall take full advantage of such opportunities by planning maintenance or actions that are better accomplished when such areas are vacant.

Should anything in this paragraph conflict with AE Reg 190-16 or (AE) Regulation 604-1, the regulation takes precedent. The Contractor shall be aware of and comply with the requirements associated with Installation Access Control. The Government is not liable for any costs associated with performance delays due solely to a firm’s failure to comply with Installation Access Control System (IACS) processing requirements. The Contractor shall return installation passes to the issuing IACS office when the contract is completed or when a Contractor employee no longer requires access. AE Reg 190-16 can be found on the following website: https://media.defense.gov/2017/Apr/27/2001921546/-1/- 1/0/AER190-16.pdf.

https://media.defense.gov/2015/Aug/26/2001922060/-1/-1/0/AER604-1.pdf.

(RA shall consult with the responsible Security Office and Activity Manager applicable to location(s) associated with this PWS.)

1.7.4.1 U.S. Citizen: The Requiring Activity Manager will determine the extent of background checks required. The Contractor employee may begin performance of the contract after receiving a favorable local background check. The Contractor agrees to replace the employee should results of the stateside background check, if required, be unfavorable as determined by the Requiring Activity Manager. The Contractor’s replacement of the employee with the unfavorable background check shall be within a timeframe provided by the Requiring Activity Manager. The Contractor shall also replace employees whose background check, during their tenure of employment, renders them with an unfavorable local or stateside background check, as determined by the Requiring Activity Manager. The Contractor shall forward a copy to the Contracting Officer via the COR and the Requiring Activity Manager of each favorable background check within one (1) calendar day of receipt by the Contractor, identifying such with the appropriate contract number (Deliverable A013). The Contractor shall forward a copy to the Contracting Officer via the COR and the Requiring Activity Manager of each unfavorable background check within one (1) calendar day of receipt by the Contractor, identifying such with the appropriate contract number (Deliverable A014). When the Government awards a non-personal services contract directly to an individual, the failure of the individual to provide a favorable background check would be grounds for termination.

1.7.4.2 Local Nationals and Third Country Nationals: Forwarding correspondence from the Contractors shall identify the associated contract number. Local nationals and third country nationals agree to the same employee termination provisions as stated for U.S. Citizens (see paragraph

1.7.4.1 above) in particular, same requirements to replace the employee (and within timeframe noted) when results of background check are unfavorable).

1.7.5 Physical Security: The contractor shall be responsible for safeguarding all Government equipment information and property provided for contractor use. At the close of each work phase, Government facilities, equipment, and materials shall be secured. Contractor personnel shall assure that all equipment is turned off and stored in the designated storage areas, together with supplies, upon completion of work. The contractor shall be held responsible for the safe storage of materials and equipment in Government areas and near the work site(s).

1.7.6 Operations Security (OPSEC) Requirements: Contractor personnel shall adhere to facility security policies and restrictions. The Contractor shall immediately report suspicious activities to security personnel.

1.8 Key Control: The contractor shall accept full responsibility for all rental property keys entrusted to contractor personnel. Rental property keys shall be turned back to the Housing office immediately upon the contractor’s return to the Housing office. The Contractor shall establish and implement methods of making sure all keys issued to the Contractor by the Government are not lost or misplaced and are not used by unauthorized persons. NOTE: All references to keys include key cards. No keys issued to the Contractor by the Government shall be duplicated. The Contractor shall develop procedures covering key control that shall be included in the Contractor’s Security Plan and the QCP. Such procedures shall include turn-in of any issued keys by personnel who no longer require access to locked areas. The Contractor shall immediately report any incidents of lost or duplicate keys to the Contracting

Officer. In the event keys, other than master keys, are lost or duplicated, the Contractor shall, upon direction of the KO, re-key or replace the affected lock or locks; however, the Government, at its option, may replace the affected lock or locks or perform re-keying. When the replacement of locks or re-keying is performed by the Government, the total cost of re-keying or the replacement of the lock or locks shall be deducted from payment due to the Contractor. In the event a master key is lost or duplicated, all locks and keys for that system shall be replaced by the Government and the total cost deducted from the payment due to the Contractor. The Contractor shall prohibit the use of Government issued keys by any persons other than the Contractor’s employees. The Contractor shall prohibit the opening of locked areas by Contractor employees to permit entrance of persons other than Contractor employees engaged in the performance of assigned work in those areas, or personnel authorized entrance by the KO. The Contractor shall establish and implement methods of ensuring that all lock combinations are not revealed to unauthorized persons. The Contractor shall ensure that lock combinations are changed when personnel having access to the combinations no longer have a need to know such combinations. These procedures shall be included in the QCP.

1.9 Post Award Conference: The Contractor shall attend any post award conference convened by the contracting activity or contract administration office in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 42.5 and Army Regulation 70-13. The KO, COR, and other Government personnel, as appropriate, may meet periodically with the Contractor to review the Contractor's performance. At these meetings the KO will apprise the Contractor of how the Government views the Contractor's performance and the Contractor shall apprise the Government of problems, if any, being experienced. Appropriate action shall be taken to resolve outstanding issues.

These meetings shall be at no additional cost to the Government.

1.9.1 Periodic Progress Meetings: The Contractor shall attend, participate in, and furnish input to scheduled and unscheduled meetings, conferences, and briefings that relate to the functions and services herein as required by the Government to provide effective communication and impart necessary information. The Contract Manager or designated representative shall attend meetings as requested by the Government. Meeting attendees shall at times include Contractor managerial, supervisory, and other personnel knowledgeable of the subject matter. Meetings may start or end outside of regular duty hours. The Contractor shall submit meeting minutes notes to the COR for review within 2 working days after the day of the meeting, (Deliverable A015). The COR will review and either notify the Contractor in writing of acceptance of the plan or return with their comments to the Contractor within 2 working days. If the Government has provided comments, the Contractor shall then have 2 working days to submit final meeting minutes.

1.10 Contracting Officer Representative (COR): Refer to Part 2 of this PWS for the definition of a COR. As determined by the KO, a COR will be appointed and identified by letter of designation, a copy of which will be provided to the Contractor by the KO. The designation letter states the responsibilities and limitations of the COR, especially with regard to changes in cost or price, estimates, or changes in delivery dates.
